Sodexo at VivaTech

VivaTechnology 2018

Sodexo was at VivaTech on 24-26 May at Porte de Versailles in Paris, the international digital innovation event which brought together large businesses and start-up organizations.

Discover how innovation can improve quality of life

 

Our stand at VivaTech was showcased to 80.000 visitors and was based on the concept of “the digital day” highlighting how Sodexo, through partnering with innovative start-ups and embracing new technology and ideas, will be able to bring value to people’s lives throughout the day; whether they are working in a traditional workspace, working at home or taking time out to relax.

The first two days of this event had seen our Company CEO, Denis Machuel present as part of the CEO Forum; our CEO Corporate Services Worldwide, Sylvia Metayer, and our Chief Digital and Innovation Officer, Belen Moscoso del Prado on our stand talking about workplace trends.

On the Saturday 26 May, VivaTech was full of events, technology and experiences to excite and inspire even the youngest minds.
